Linear robots have several linear axes combined in order to implement a multidimensional movement. igus supplies flat, linear and room linear robots for a multitude of different tasks. igus linear robots include harnessed drylin linear modules/axes with NEMA stepper motors as well as all the components needed to build your own robot. Application examples for flat linear robots: Measurement and testing, labelling technology and component marking.

The weight of an end effector will decrease the available payload of your robot.

In this customer test, an end effector for the quality control of remote controls was tested with the help of an igus area portal. The aim was to test each remote control in a certain time in order to be able to comply with the cycle times in the customer's production later on. A classic application of automation in quality assurance.

Indoor farming with robots

Binnenkweek met robots

Small farmers strive to maximize crop yields, reduce labor and waste, and use environmentally friendly and energy-saving cultivation techniques. This is why the TrellaGro LST™ was developed. With the use of robotics, it attempts to create an automated cultivation system that gently trains plants to grow horizontally rather than vertically. In addition to this point, farmers can also track environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and CO2 levels. With the help of igus products, we were able to implement our TrellaGro LST™. Advantages in favor were the low cost, quiet operation, low weight, self-lubrication, corrosion resistance, dirt resistance, durability and easy installation. The following products were used: igus drylin® W pillow block bearings as bearing points for the carriages and the Igus drylin® W profile double rails.

The patented technology for the plant training is based on two "carriages" that move independently of each other in the same linear axis. The first is an apex carriage that senses the vertical growth of the plant and then gently steers it in one direction during the vegetative growth phase until the plant is no longer growing vertically, but horizontally. The second cart is located below the Apex cart and houses a pair of fans and other environmental sensors. This cart moves back and forth several times during a growth cycle, allowing the built-in fans to direct air through the foliage above. To stack two independent "rails" on top of each other for linear movement in close proximity, two Igus drylin® W-profile double rails (WSQ-10-40) were used per unit. These rails mount easily to an extruded aluminum frame and keep three (of four) frame mounting slots clear for mounting other components, while providing two linear rails for the apex carriage and fan carriage.

Vision supported Pick and Place application with igus room gantry

Kameraunterstützte Pick and Place Anwendung mit igus Raumportal

In this application, a pick-and-place solution was tested for a customer using an igus linear robot, a camera, and a conveyor belt. The individual components had to communicate seamlessly to ensure the metal part could be reliably picked up from the conveyor belt and accurately sorted. The integration of the camera for detecting and positioning the metal part, along with the precise control of the linear robot, played a crucial role in ensuring the system’s high reliability and efficiency.

Pick and place with large room gantry

Pick and Place mit großem Raumportal

The pick-and-place system for metal components uses a large spatial gantry to enable precise and efficient movements. The end effector, equipped with a camera, identifies and grips the metal parts. The camera provides real-time images that are used to accurately position and handle the components. The system ensures high accuracy and repeatability, making it ideal for industrial applications where precision and speed are critical.

This video demonstrates how injection molds can be efficiently and thoroughly cleaned using a gantry system, an intelligent cleaning system (IRC), and an e-chain set. The use of the gantry system is demonstrated, highlighting its precise positioning and movement. Following this, the intelligent cleaning system is introduced, including its functionality. The advantages of this cleaning method for injection molds include precise and automated cleaning of hard-to-reach areas, detection and removal of contaminants through intelligent sensors and software, as well as flexible and reliable energy and data transmission.
